here you have a democratic candidate who at one time served george w. bush, but is a safe haven for latinos. >> he does have a decent chance there. for those very reasons, despite how far right arizona is, it stays as a deep red state because the latino population is growing and the tea party opposition to those folks is so strident that it's not going to moderate itself. that's the big problem that the kind of gop establishment has with the tea party. the tea party they often don't care if they lose. they would rather die trying. they would rather put an akin or murdoch or christine o'donnell in there. they would rather put that up and go down, whereas the gop establishment is like no, let's put up moderates that can win. even though when the gop establishment did win in wisconsin, tommy thomson is now getting hammered. >> especially given the fact that scott walker has quite the infrastructure in wisconsin. the question is, joy, when it's all said and done, if they lose these seats, will they say it is time to purge these radical elements from our par
